Mass flow and tsunami modelling results for potential events in the Sciara del Fuoco of Stromboli (NERC NE/T009438/1)

Numerical models of mass flows and tsunamis that they generated with their entrance in the sea. The mass flows propagate in the Sciara del Fuoco of Stromboli. The mass flows are not real events, but are rather used as a sensitivity analysis to examine tsunamigenic potential of mass flows of landslides and pyroclastic flows of different durations, volumes and coherence. The data was generated with the two fluid version of the Volcflow model. The material includes tsunami height measurements (plotted as well as raw data) for each run recorded by virtual gauges located around the island (map of gauges included), maximum wave height data in the area around the island and at the shores, a video visualisation of the mass flows and resultant tsunami waves, and a figure of the final deposit from each modelled mass flow. The numerical model simulations were carried out by Symeon Makris. The Volcflow code is not included in the submitted material but it is open source and can be downloaded here: https://lmv.uca.fr/volcflow/

Statement
Different mass flows where designed in the Matlab environment of the Volcflow model according to the event that was desired to be modelled. While the model was running, it recorded the wave height at pre-decided virtual gauges around the island as well as the maximum wave height in each cell of the model. At the end, a video visualisation of each event was recorded. A map of the gauges is included with the data as well as a spreadsheet with the conditions used in each simulation.
